The problems I sent in about su and not accessing my files were sort of a
mistake on my part, but they were sort of due to another bug.
When I did an su, it tried to go through my .alias file, some of which
isn't world readable, so I got the permission denied. I thought the su had
failed because my prompt hadn't changed.

The root prompt should end with a #
like it does on other platforms.
